    I hate being carried through something. Where if I was new and everyone else so over geared I feel like I am there just for token attacks, or really the other 3 (less of an issue with 8 and 24 person content, depending they can largely be completed with several missing) could just as easily finish just fine without me. I am one that likes to SEE the dungeon, explore it, experience it. As a new person today, you are not going to get that. You are going to be swiftly carried through without REALLY seeing what is going on, or know that phases are skipped, or why is that add there but ok guess we will just ignore and burn boss, what is that mechanic and how do we deal with it... Blind runs into a dungeon are my favorite. The group explores and learns and figures things out as they go. Someone new in my group? I'll at times ask them if they want to go blind or have things explained. I guess I miss game where tactics played a nice part of it, other than simply "dodge that".

    I personally think the ilvl sync needs to be tighter. But, it is also not ruining my fun of the game without the sync, or with the loose sync it is now. I was afraid that this will have a few things from WoW that I hate, and unfortunately it does once you hit level 50. Things are just an AOE zerg fest, and you swiftly get carried through something. It is of course worse in WoW, where there is no level sync, and your max level buddy can pull the entire level 20 dungeon to the end and aoe everything down, to "plow" you through. To me that is no fun at all.

    I am also aware different people find different things fun. Really hard to please everyone. With them allowing solo dungeon runs, or even dungeons without level sync but accessible through DF, just going to cause problems. You going to have both sides (and even the third middle ground that doesn't care one way or the other) at war with each other, just like this thread, speed running in general, and a slew of other topics.
